Provider information

Description

You may look like you have it all together, but inside carry wounds from a childhood where love felt earned, emotions were dismissed, and needs went unmet. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, therapist, and immigrant, I support adults navigating childhood trauma, low self-worth, anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm/dysregulation, life transitions, and identity struggles—especially BIPOC, immigrants, and students. Together, we’ll heal old wounds, shift patterns, regulate emotions, and come home to who you truly are. Sessions in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. Email for a consult.

Summary

As a first-gen Asian immigrant, I understand the quiet ache of not belonging. I bring lived experience, deep presence, and respect for your story. My therapy style is warm, emotionally attuned and collaborative—sometimes offering structure, other times following your lead. I'm gentle but honest: I’ll validate your experience while also gently challenging you to grow. Together, we’ll untangle what feels heavy and support your transformation. If you're open, we can explore spiritual meaning or integrate energy work to support deeper healing. You are not alone, I’d be honoured to walk with you.
